track down, some of which were actual videos. some transcripts, 
etc.etc.,  Let's be realistic. While I can understand that people are 
suspicious without clearly footnoted sources, I can't help wondering 
if the immediate effect of insisting on citing actual verified 
sources is to close down the option of quoting JKR to all but those 
who have photographic memories and/or bookmarked links to every chat 
they've read (or are you all this devoted except me?).  


I agree with you to an extent.  However, there are times when it 
would help to know where that information came from.  Example, where 
did so many people come up with the idea that Harry has a fan who 
will die?  I have never seen that in any interview.  I would just 
like to be able to see that one for myself.  

I know I have not tracked down all her interviews and I don't have a 
photograpic memory ;-)

don't, to the best of my knowledge (though after my whinge above 
someone will no doubt trump me with some obscure chat reference!), 
know for sure that she was in Gryffindor.  Perhaps the reason why we 
haven't heard about her from Lupin and Sirius is that she was in 
another house.  ***Could she have been in Slytherin??***


Well......Scholastic, October 16, 2000:

Q:  Which house was Lily Potter in, and what is her maiden name?
A:  Her maiden name was Evans and she was in Gryffindor (naturally).

I'm one of the few who don't like the idea of Snape/Lily  :-0
